Step 1 - Create your focal image!

I started by coloring some random backgrounds onto watercolor paper using Nuvo Aqua Flow Pens.You can see how I did this on myYouTube Channel HERE. I stamped the sweet little baby unicorn usingVersamark Ink and heat embossed it withBlack Detail Embossing Powder,

After I had it embossed, I fussy cut out the unicorn.

Step 2 - Work on your BACKGROUND

I decided to do the LACE TECHNIQUE for my background! For this technique, you need a piece ofSticker Paper, a piece of your favorite lace and 2 colors of glitter (I like to use Mircrofine Glitter for this technique). Remove the protective backing from your sticker paper and lay your lace over top. I like to use my darker Glitter color first, then my lighter color. Sprinkle on yourCandy Pink MicrofineGlitter and burnish in well with your finger tool. Tap off your excess glitter andgentlypull back your lace. Sprinkle on your second glitter color (I usedButterscotch Glitter here for this card) and gently burnish it in! You will see you have now transferred your lace design to your paper!

Step 3 - Die Cuts!

I decided I wanted something in behind my unicorn, so I grabbed my Tonic StudiosFern Garland Die 1282e and die cut a piece of yellow cardstock. I didn't want the wreath to be open, so I did a second die cut on a piece ofSticker Papercovered withCarnation Glitter. I used the CENTER CUT of the wreath to insert into my original yellow piece (now I have a glittery wreath to use on my next project!)...so don't forget that your "scrap" die cut pieces can also be used!

Step 4 - Put It ALL Together and Embellish!

To embellish my unicorn, I added someCarnationandUnicorn Glittersto her mane and tail using aSakura Glue Pen. I also used someDimensional Glueto addedSnow White Flockingto her cloud.

I adhered all my layers with1/2" Tear-Ific Tapeand used some dimensional squares to pop up the unicorn. The sentiment was stamped withVersamark Inkand embossed withRosa Embossing Powder. A bit of pink grosgrain ribbon was added too. Finally, I added some of the Enchanted Sequin Mix to the unicorn and card usingNuvo Deluxe Adhesive.
